Abstract: A chain binder to connect and apply tension to chains, straps, or the like used to secure cargo on any type of platform or vehicle. The chain binder includes a lever body; a first side portion; a second side portion; and gears that effectuate two modes of operation. Namely, a power driven mode of operation or a manual lever mode of operation. Rotations of the gears causes hooks or connectors, via movement of eye-bolts, toward each other to place tension in the chains or strap. Opposite rotations of the gears causes hooks or connectors, via movement of eye-bolts, away from each other to relax the chains or strap. If components are damages during use, they may be replaced on an as-needed basis to reduce operational cost of the chain binder since the entire binder does not need replaced when only one component fails or is damaged.

Abstract: An apparatus to lower or raise landing gear on a trailer or semi-truck comprising a tool having a center body with a coupling device and a power coupling that is selectively engageable with a rotatable projection on the landing gear. The power coupling is operatively engaged with a worm gear within the center body and thereby with the coupling device. A powered drill is engaged with the power coupling and is actuated to rotate the power coupling in a first direction or in a second direction. The power coupling rotates the worm gear, which rotates the coupling device and thereby the projection on the landing gear. Rotation of the projection in one direction lowers the landing gear. Rotation of the projection in the opposite direction raises the landing gear. The user selects to raise or lower the landing gear simply by causing the drill chuck to rotate clockwise or counter-clockwise.
